New payment method - crypto currencies

Recommended Posts

I have added a new experimental payment method - crypto currencies. You can now buy all single purchase Premium stuff with Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum or Monero. You cannot buy subscriptions with crypto, as subscriptions work only with PayPal preapproved payments.

I have tested it myself yesterday with Bitcoin and while it took some time for the transaction to go through and get verified (around 40 minutes, but that's probably because I'm cheap and chose lowest possible transaction fee ), it did work just fine and I automatically received the ordered product as soon as the transaction cleared. Crypto currencies have much smaller fees than PayPal (flat 0.5% for crypto vs 4.4% + fixed fee for PayPal) so if you have a possibility to use it and you're not in a rush, it is a preferred payment method.

If you don't know what Bitcoin or crypto currencies are, here's a great guide on the official bitcoin site about how to get started.
